Theme:The aim of this Training program is skill-building and development of women's careers in Astronomy. The 'Essential Skills for Astronomy Research' is a 5-days virtual Workshop with a session of 2 hours/day that will cover topics related to image analysis, communicating research, and plotting tools.

These sessions will include short (30 min) talks, followed by hands-on sessions (1.5 hr) where participants will work along with the instructors. Tutorials/assignments will be given to the participants for the practice sessions. The tutorial problems will be discussed and solutions will be provided towards the end of the session. The participants will be also given the opportunity to present their results, towards the end of this training program and a participation certificate will be provided by the organizers. A slack channel (link below) is also created to encourage interaction on a common platform.

Required Material:

The sessions will be hands-on and so you will need to have a laptop/desktop at your disposal.
